Hyderabad: A man was arrested here on Thursday for allegedly threatening the in-charge vice chancellor of Telangana Mahila Viswavidyalayam (women’s university) and obstructing her from performing her official duties, police said.

The vice chancellor, in a complaint to the police, said that on July 1, one G Srinivas Yadav entered her chamber at the university and asked to felicitate him as he is doing a lot of social work and gives free education and scholarships to girl students and that he is a contender for a MLA ticket from the Goshamahal constituency.

The complainant then accepted his request and told him that if it was possible he could sponsor some of the economically and socially weak students in the university.

However, the man, a local political leader, reportedly became angry and started to raise his voice and allegedly threatened her, the police quoted the complainant as saying.

The vice chancellor asked him to leave the office as she was busy with her official duty, but he did not listen to her and allegedly obstructed while she was performing her duties, they said.

Based on the complaint, a case was registered at Sultan Bazar police station and the accused was arrested, police said.

Natural Infection Lowers Risk of Hospitalisation or Death by 88% for at Least 10 Months: Lancet Study

A recent study published in The Lancet medical journal suggests that natural infection with COVID-19 provides significant protection against severe disease, hospitalization, and death for at least 10 months after the initial infection. The study, which was conducted in Israel, analyzed data from more than 800,000 individuals who were tested for COVID-19 between June 2020 and January 2021. Of these, approximately 13% had tested positive for the virus during the first wave of the pandemic. Researchers found that those who had been infected with COVID-19 were significantly less likely to be reinfected with the virus during the second wave of the pandemic compared to those who had not been previously infected. Specifically, individuals with prior infection had an 84% lower risk of becoming reinfected with COVID-19 compared to those who had never been infected. Moreover, the study revealed that individuals with natural infection had an 88% lower risk of hospitalization and death due to COVID-19 during the second wave of the pandemic compared to those who had never been infected. This protection persisted for at least 10 months after the initial infection.
